W1 Bolting Products
W1 is listed in the TOOL STEEL material family. The reference data below should be checked against the governing product specification, product form and delivery condition before selection or certification.
The reference chemistry table for W1 lists Carbon (C): Grade-specific / specification dependent; Silicon (Si): Grade-specific / specification dependent; Manganese (Mn): Grade-specific / specification dependent; Chromium (Cr): Grade-specific / specification dependent. Confirm exact limits and analysis tolerances against the governing standard and product form.
The mechanical-property table for W1 lists Tensile Strength: Specification / condition dependent MPa; Yield Strength: Specification / condition dependent MPa; Elongation: Specification / condition dependent %; Hardness: Specification / condition dependent HB / HRC. These are reference entries; supplied condition, dimensions, test method and governing specification control the requirements, and the figures are not design allowables.
No one-to-one Werkstoff number was verified for W1 in the cross-reference sources checked for this update. Confirm any proposed EN alternative against the governing specification.

Indicative physical-property values for alloy steels; exact values vary by grade and should be confirmed from the relevant specification.
Tool steels are specialty steels developed for tooling applications where combinations of hardness, wear resistance, toughness and hot-strength are required. Exact characteristics vary with the individual grade, product form and heat-treatment condition.
Tool steels are selected and heat treated to achieve controlled hardness for tooling service.
Many grades provide strong resistance to adhesive and abrasive wear when properly heat treated.
Hot-work grades are formulated for performance at elevated working temperatures.
The grade family is divided into types optimized for different tool-service conditions.
W1 belongs to the tool steel family and is selected for applications where the relevant strength, hardenability, wear resistance or toughness requirements are met by the specified grade and condition.
Used for stamping dies, forming tools, molds and related tooling.
Applicable grades are used in knives, cutters and other tooling.
Selected grades provide the hardness and toughness needed for punches and wear parts.
H-series grades are used for dies and tooling exposed to elevated temperatures.
Select the exact W1 specification, product form and supply condition according to the required strength, toughness, wear resistance and service environment.
Heat-treatment parameters are grade-specific. Use the applicable specification and qualified processing procedure for hardening, tempering or case hardening.
Final mechanical properties depend on grade, section size and material condition. Confirm the required tensile strength, yield strength and hardness before selection.
No one-to-one Werkstoff number was verified for W1 in the cross-reference sources checked for this update, so this page does not assign a number. Confirm any proposed EN alternative against the applicable product standard and supplier certificate before substitution.
The listed alloy-steel and tool-steel grades are generally selected for heat-treated service, but the exact treatment depends on the grade and required material condition.
Typical uses depend on the exact grade and condition and may include machinery parts, gears, shafts, fasteners, tooling or spring components within the relevant material family.
Use the applicable AISI, SAE or other governing specification and the material certificate for the supplied product form and condition.
